Discovery probe to get printer firmware version

Does anybody know of a pre-existing SNMP probe or written one that gets printer firmware version? From my understanding, this is vendor specific and not as trivial as it would seem. Help is much appreciated. Thanks!

You will need an OID that gives you exactly that. Do snmpwalk and find that correct OID, use that to get the info, parse it accordingly.

Responding, as this would be helpful for us as well.   I'd also like to be able to retrieve the serial number of a local USB printer, although that's likely something I need to make a separate post about.
